Natasha Lyonne Braunstein is an American actress, director, and writer. She is known for playing Nicky Nichols on the Netflix comedy-drama series Orange Is the New Black.
Natasha Lyonne said, “I honestly think we broke up because I wanted a swimming pool.” Natasha Lyonne and Fred Armisen have ended their relationship.
The 43-year-old actress opened out about her relationship with Armisen—and revealed their split—while speaking with The Hollywood Reporter about the long-awaited second season of her Russian Doll series.
In response to the question of whether she is currently based in Los Angeles, Lyonne informed the publication, “I’m not one of them. During COVID, I was there living with Fred [Armisen].”
“I honestly think we broke up because I wanted a swimming pool,” she continued. “We love each other just about as much as two people can love each other and we’re still talking all the time, but Freddy doesn’t like a swimming pool. It might seem like a mundane reason for a breakup, but during that pandemic, you’ve got to get your laps — I’m like Burt Lancaster in The Swimmer.”
“So that’s the real scandal,” New Black alum jokingly added. “I guess I finally am an actual bicoastal.”
